Despite keeping up with the
modern times, India is still known for retaining its tradition and heritage. This
can be seen in the various heritage sites in the country: monuments dedicated
love & war, grand castles & palaces, fortresses, family havelis &
kothis and entire fortified towns. From the hills of Himachal to small towns in
Tamil Nadu, these majestic structures will take you back in time when enormous
kingdoms ruled over India.
Contrary to the past, when these
royal homes were reserved just for the families that owned them, Rockstays has
compiled a list of heritage sites that have now opened their gates for travelers
from across the world!
Here is our selection of the top
palaces, castles and haveli’s of India, which make sure that you are treated
